Are Government Grants Available with Electric Van Leasing?

Yes, the UK government offers a Plug-in Van Grant to help make electric van leasing even more affordable. This grant applies to low-emission vans and provides a valuable discount on the cost of your lease. Here's how it works:

  • Small Electric Vans: For low-emission vans weighing less than 2,500kg, the government grant covers 35% of the purchase price, up to a maximum of £2,500.
  • Large Electric Vans: For low-emission vans weighing between 2,500kg and 4,250kg, the grant provides a 35% discount, up to £5,000.

No Application Necessary: Vansdirect has already factored the government grant into all our electric van leasing prices. There's nothing extra for you to do-simply choose your van, and the discount is automatically applied.

Please Note:The Plug-in Van Grant only applies to new electric vans. Used electric van leases do not qualify for this grant.

These grants make switching to an electric van easier and more affordable, helping you save money while making a positive environmental impact.
